Oddbean new post about login | logout The high trust society exhibited in my village by the sea is something we should fight for. Kids riding bikes all over the island without supervision. Wife left my beach chair on the path to the beach for three hours. It was waiting for me when I arrived. The simple things.
We left our garage (and basically the whole house) open and left for vacation for a week. Nothing missing. I left my keys in the keyhole for 3 weeks. Nothing missing. That's the village we live in.
Welcome to nostr😁
I left the door unlocked one night and someone walked in and stole my roommates xbox
Yesterday i told my girl that these „little things“, which you talk about, this confidence in the integrity of each other, which exists in some places of the world, is what i yearn for everywhere i go. Something as simple as letting a door open and feel relaxed about it or making a deal only with a handshake gives me an indescribable kind of satisfaction.
The way to scale this is by agressively repressing a-social behavior, preverably by removing them from the cultural/gene-pool entirely, alternatively bar them from reproduction and/or raising children. If you consitently hang the bottem few % assholes, it compounds over time. Thats North-western Europe during the middle ages for you. Question is, are you too squeamish or not.
That's a racist society you are describing and as we know racism is not allowed. Whatever you do, do not disclose your location or some jews will figure out how to force non whites to invade. If you object, you are racist. If you don't, you lose everything you value.
If you like kids riding bikes like there's no tomorrow, come visit the Netherlands! Most kids here ride from the age of 3 or 4 on public roads (preferably without helmets). It gives them the freedom to go places (school, friends, swimming pool, etc) independently quite early on Bike infrastructure here is insane btw 🍻
